Sponsor the Hawthorn Half Day Relay & Ultra

The Hawthorn Half Day Relay & Ultra is a locally owned endurance event celebrating 20 years in Terre Haute. Each spring, runners, walkers, teams, crews, and spectators gather at Hawthorn Park for a full day of movement, teamwork, and community.

Sponsorships play a huge role in making this event possible — and in keeping it welcoming, well-supported, and fun for everyone involved.

Why Sponsor Hawthorn Half Day?

  • Extended exposure: With 6- and 12-hour race formats, sponsors receive visibility throughout the entire day — not just at the start and finish.

  • Engaged audience: Participants and crews spend hours on site, creating real opportunities for brand interaction.

  • Community connection: This is a grassroots event with strong local support and returning participants year after year.

  • Flexible options: From signage and digital promotion to on-site activations and custom experiences, sponsorships are designed to fit your goals.
